BECOSORB 6000

Beer stabilization

BECOSORB 6000 silica gel is a highly pure amorphous silicic acid-hydrogel with an average moisture content of 55%. The defined particle size of BECOSORB 6000 silica gel is formulated especially for beer filtration. Uniform surface structure and pore size together with optimum pore volume guarantee that protein compounds of high molecular weight are adsorbed from the beer.

Filter Material

Hydrogel with an average moisture content of 55%

Application

Protein stabilization of beer

Dosage

max. 40 - 140 g/hl

核心功能

Selective adsorption of protein fractions of high molecular weight
No influence on components of low molecular weight that are positive for foam formation
As a hydrogel, virtually dust free handling
Acts also as filter media, supports the filtration process
Can be combined with PVPP and diatomaceous earth products
Neutral flavor and aroma, chemically inert
Free from contaminants that would spoil the beer
